Your landing page does not really tell me anything about this product. Why should I join? What can you do on Everchat?

Amazing work :D Do keep it up!

Couple of notes:

    - Loving the UI.
    - Home should say what is everchat, features, differentiating factors.
    - Peek into "popular channels" without login.
    - Sign up email comes from a random firebase domain, not the same as the welcome.
    - Haven't managed to post a comment, getting 500 on a `s?l=dataLayer` resource (chrome macOS).
    - Ability to enable notifications (email and/or html5) on specific channels.
    - A monthly or so email about new features, stats, or changes would be nice. I don't think I'd use it right now but if it managed to get traction I'd be up for it.
    - Maybe: Invite only rooms? Discord style.

Thanks for the feedback!

> "Loving the UI." <3

> "Home should say what is everchat, features, differentiating factors." Will add this to our backlog. We're getting this request a lot!

> "Peek into "popular channels" without login." Same as the above

> "Sign up email comes from a random firebase domain, not the same as the welcome." Yeah we know about this, we requested a custom domain but Google is taking its time :D

> "Haven't managed to post a comment, getting 500 on a `s?l=dataLayer` resource (chrome macOS)." Don't really know what's going on here, but will look into it.

> "Ability to enable notifications (email and/or html5) on specific channels." Great idea!!!

> "A monthly or so email about new features, stats, or changes would be nice. I don't think I'd use it right now but if it managed to get traction I'd be up for it." Monthly email update is setup :)

> "Maybe: Invite only rooms? Discord style." Private channels that are accessible only for people with a token are on our roadmap. :)
